The Sweden international is also been touted as the Spanish giant long-term replacement of Robert Lewandowski who is now 35 years old but signing Isak will be no easy task with the striker having signed for a club-record £63m last summer with Newcastle United.
Newcastle will be looking to get the same fee they paid if they are to part ways with him and that will be tough for the Laliga defending champions who are still in financial trouble.
